West Mercia Police Federation

2-day Retirement course with Mightify 7th and 8th April 2021

5 March 2021

 

Unsure of your options? Feeling Stuck? Preparing to Move On?

West Mercia Police Federation are providing an opportunity to officers who are within 2 years of retirement, or within the EIHR process, to attend an innovative 2-day course with Mightify to better understand themselves, their options and achieve a positive, fulfilling future inside or outside of policing.

At Mightify, we understand what a significant change it is to move on from emergency service careers and this course is designed and delivered by people who have done exactly that, as well as helping many others do it too. We believe that you will leave these 2 days with greater confidence, better awareness of what’s out there for you and the skills to effectively present yourself.

We have developed a forward-thinking course for anyone looking to assess their options, harnessing their emergency services skills and experience to find a rewarding new role. With course content accredited by CPD, you can be sure of the highest quality learning experience.

Topics Covered:

  • Methods, approaches and tools for preparing for successful career change
  • Personal and wellbeing dimensions of career change/transition
  • Financial impacts and considerations
  • Identifying, translating and presenting transferable skills
  • Practical tools such as CVs, job applications, LinkedIn and more
  • Employment market insights and opportunity reviews
  • Models of employment, self-employment and more
  • Building a powerful network, online and offline
  • Success stories of those that have gone before
  • Ongoing support structures

Previous police attendees have said:

“I’m now more confident with a bigger sense of vision and opportunity”
